Question

The boiling point of water is ${100}^{0}K$. Identify the mistake(s) in the statement and correct it in Kelvin scale.

Answer 1

The boiling point of water is $100°C$ and not $100°K$ i.e, if we want to write boiling point of water in kelvin-scale of temperature then we can use :

$\Rightarrow T°C=(T+273)K$

So, $100°C=(100+273)K=373K$

Thus, boiling point of water is $373K$ or $100°C.$

Hence, the answer is $373.15K$ or $100°C.$
